Cross docking fucntionality

Hi
I have a requirement to adapt cross docking functionality in my project.
But My concern is
1.I donot have cross docking configuration nodes in SAP 4.7 version in SPRO.
2.I also donot have cross docking monitoring station transactions and few other related transaction codes in the front end.
So any idea how could i  bring this functionality??
thanks in advance for your suggestions.

  • Opportunistic cross-docking not working

    Hi All,
    We are trying to implement opportunistic cross-docking process. My understanding is that during the creation of the goods receipt TO the system looks for any open picking TO and accordingly directly moves material from 902 to 916 storage type. The following configuration is done
    1. For the warehouse opportunistic cross-docking has been activating by selecting option 4.
    2. Cross-docking relevancy has been defined for movement type 101
    3. For movement type 101, the 'Consider pre-allocated' check box is not ticked
    4. In the respective movement types 1 & 2 for 'TO creation' are entered as screen control in movement types 101 and 601
    5. No automatic confirmation for TO is set up
    The following transactions are now done
    1. Create a sales order with outbound delivery and TO created (not confirmed)
    2. PO with MIGO (we are not using HU and hence no inbound delivery)
    3. Now during the creation of the TO for the goods receipt, the expectation is that the system will look for the open picking TO and will cancel the same and then create the putaway TO directly from 902 to 916. But this does not happen.
    Not sure if I am missing some setting or some transaction needs to be done differently. I went through SAP help but it does not give more details on what setting might be missing.

    Hi Jurgen,
    Thanks for the link. But I had already gone through it and configured the system accordngly. The surprising part is that corss-docking is working for outboud documents i.e. if i create a TO for inbound first and then for outbound then while creating the TO for outbound it automatically takes the source as 902 and cancels the put away TO. However for other way round where the outbound TO is first created and then the inbound, the expectation is that reverse should happen i.e. the destination in the TO should be taken as 916 and original picking TO should be cancelled. However it is not happening.
    In the link it talks about points 5 & 6 which are only for HU environment and since we do not have the same I have not configured those. But my question now would be is it that opportunistic inbound cross-docking can only be possible with HU but not required for outbound. Else I do not see any other reason why this might be happening.

  • Cross Docking with LE-WM - or - Reactivating Back Orders upon Goods Receipt

    I have been reviewing the documentation for Opportunistic and Planned Cross Docking in LE-WM. The requirement is to release Back Orders upon receipt of a shipment to avoid putting them away and picking them right away from the bin. We want to release the Back Orders for picking in the GR area at the time of receipt.
    So far it appears that Opportunistic Cross Docking depends on a Transfer Order already existing. The system then cancels the existing TO and replaces it with a TO to pick from the receipt Storage Type.
    Planned Cross Docking appears to require an existing Outbound Delivery to the expected Inbound Delivery.
    In the case of a Back Order, no Outbound Delivery or Transfer Order exist since there is no stock to release until the goods are received.
    Is there a way to release Back Orders to be picked directly from Goods Receipt?
    Thanks;
    Jim

    The problem is that all the information I found so far about it is over the process of external goods coming and sending they out without the need of storing in the warehouse. They go directly to the picking area (one step) or in two step process  going first from 902 (Good receive from external) to Cross docking Sorage type.and another movement  from Cross Docking Storage type to 916 Good issue Storage type.
    I need to know if it is possible to implement a solution of Cross Docking for certain number of products having a factory and a warehouse. If so, would you give me a brief process flow?.
    Thank You very much.

  • Cross Docking in SAP R/3 ECC 6.0

    Folks,
    I'm struggling to make 2-step w/ planned cross docking work. Basically, unable to connect the planned with the candidate document.
    Here is the scenario:
    1. (Candidate) Outbound delivery created with a delivery date / time of 09/04/08 - 10:00 (No TO initiated)
    2. (Planned) Inbound delivery created with a delivery date / time of 09/04/08 - 12:00 (No TO initiated)
    The system invokes different messages based on the following config. settings: (These messages occur when I right click on the inbound delivery and select "plan cross docking")
    Setting 1:
    Planning time: 1 D
    Default Release: 1D
    Def Latest Release: -
    Message: No inbound documents have been selected for planning
    Setting 2:
    Planning time: 1 D
    Default Release: 1D
    Def Latest Release: 1D
    Message: Time ref. 09/04/2008 10:00:00 of plan.doc. xxxxxxxxx does not match cand.documents time refs
    BTW, it's a simple setup WITHOUT transportation, yard management, HUM or SUT.
    Thanks in advance for your valuable comments!!

    Dear Christiane,
    First & foremost appreciate your quick response.
    As per what you say (& If I have understood it correctly) having the Delivery Date & Time of the Inbound as 09.04.2010 10:00 would solve the issue ? I did change the Inbound Delivery time but to no avail.......as per my example.....what do you think should be the Inbound/Outbound Date & Time
    If I understood right, as per my example, the Outbound Delivery time is set to 12:00, the latest release time is set to 1 hr thus the latest time for the outbound to be released is 11:00 (Outbound Del time - latest rel time)
    Planning time is again 1hr, so planning window is from 10:00 to 11:00 - [(Outbound Del time - latest rel time) - Planning time]. Hence if I set the Inbound time to 10:00 it should work right ?
    The release time, what effect does this have ?
    Looking forward to your help.

  • Cross Docking readily in ECC 6.0

    Hi,
    I am in ECC 6.0. I wanted to know if the Cross docking function is in.
    Do I need to turn on any activation switch?
    Someone, I am not able to locate any reference or folder for CROSS DOCK in the IMG.
    I read up the SAP Help but cannot find the path to perform the configuration.
    I also cannot find the sample storage type to reference. Is it true I will need to create a fresh storage type?
    Can some one share?
    Thanks

    I have a standard setup/config for cross docking functionality. However, all the outbound deliveries are getting dumped in the Alert monitor with error "Del - Release time in past". I tried changing the delivery dates but no success.
    Should I remove the object class (571), which checks for the Delivery release time, from the alert monitor? Any advice on how to fix this issue?
    All responses will be rewarded.
    Thanks !

  • Not able to link inbound to outbound in cross dock

    Hi,
    we have a warehouse managment setup in our project we are using cross dock process linking of my inboun delivery to outbound delivery. In my inbound delivery consits of 2 materials amd my outbound also consists of the same materials while i am going to connect this inbound delivery to outbound delivery. The inbound is giving all the materials and while the outbound is showing only one item cross dock monitor but the second item is present in outbound delivery but it is not displaying in the monitor tool.
    Can any one let me know.
    sunil

    Can you give me some more inputs on this? I need to know exactly what is the role of ware house there? What exactly you are doing in cross docking? Are you shipping the material received through inbound process by just putting in another truck? What mvt types are used here both for inbound and out bound?

  • Cross docking

    Gurus,
    How does the system identifies materials are subjected to cross docking?

    Hi Vineet,
    I have maintained the setting you have mantioned. However I get an error when I try to plan the document in cross dock monitor.
    No inbound documents have been selected for planning
    or
    No outbound documents have been selected for planning
    I am wondering, when we can see both the inbound and the outbound document in the monitor, why can we plan them. I have tried all sorts of permutation and combination in the configuration but it never seems to work.
    Can you please guide me, how to find a solution for this problem.

    Hello,
    For Oppertunistic Cross dock..
    You need to create either Putaway TO/Pick TO and then system checks the cross doc and cancel the TO and create a new TO from 902 to 916. and also updates in the document flow. This  you can do with out Cross dock monitor. With out planning the cross dock you can do the cross docking by following the config in help.sap.com.
    for more information about the complete config you need to see the sap link below. sure it will help you.

  • Cross Docking from a Factory

    Hi all,
    I´m doing a first approach to cross docking, So far what I read about it is that the goods are taken from goods receipt to goods issue without being placed in storage in the meantime.
    My customer is a factory. They heard about the Cross Docking advantages improving the process in the Warehouse and avoiding storage and inventory tasks (they are using WM).
    Iu2019m not sure if Cross Docking can be the way for improving the process of producing and sending to costumers without storing in the warehouse or there is a easy way to follow with not Cross Docking involved.
    Thank You

  • Cross Docking Functionality - ECC6.0

    Hi,
    Can some explain in detail what are the Cross Docking Functionalities has been provided in ECC 6.0 compared to the previous versions.
    Thanks,
    Chak.

    Hi chakku,
    Cross docking changes in ECC 6.0.
    Effects on Customizing
      To use Cross-Docking, you must define the following in Customizing for
      Logistics Execution -> Warehouse Management - Cross-Docking:
      o   General warehouse level settings, including the cross-docking
          storage type, outbound document release and latest release times,
          and FIFO tolerance duration.
      o   The relevancy of cross-docking for warehouse movement types
      You also have the option of personalizing the monitor and alert monitor,
      as well as implementing project-specific logic via Business Add-Ins.
    See also
      o   IMG for Logistics Execution -> Warehouse Management -> Cross-Docking

  • Cross docking functionality in SAP F&R

    Hi All,
        I want to know how the cross docking functionality is handled in SAP F&R.
       Whether I should give RP type 11 in store level and RP type 01/02 in DC level for these cross docking products?
       Whether anyone has done the dynamic allocation functionality for cross docking products in which there should be an option to send the latest Order proposal values to ECC from SAP F&R so that STO s can be done with those new OP values?
    Regards,
    Resmi Raj.

    Hi Eduardo,
    Thanks for your reply. I have the similar scenario
    Herein, we have kept relationship as mentioned below
    Article: 100050
    Store: FRS4
    DC: FRD4
    Vendor - TESTVEND1
    For Vendor -> DC, we have maintained the distribution profile as FTM (Cross docking) and the RP type for article as 01
    For DC -> Store, we have maintained RP type as 11
    Now when we have updated the consumption data for both DC & store for the article at DC / store. We ran FRP for both DC (FRD4) and store (FRS4). The order proposal was getting created correctly for store, while no order proposal was created for DC as per the RP type.
    Now, how is it being classified as a Cross docking scenario as we expect that the OP (STO's), once their inbound delivery is created, then they should be cumulated in ECC and generated a collective PO for Cross docking. Is that correct. Also, can you please let know the exact process to be followed for the same.
    thanks
    Best Regards

  • Cross Docking Pick TO cancellation

    Hi Experts
    I am trying to Configure the Cross docking scenario
    I have configured the following
    1. Cross-dock Warehouse level customization in SPRO-LE-WM-Cross Docking-Maintain Warehouse level Settings
    2. Cross dock relevancy for movement types in SPRO-LE-WM-Cross Docking-Define Cross docking relevancy for movement types
    3. There is no Pre-allocated stock check for both movement types 101 and 601
    4. Stock placement and stock removal confirmation required for storage types 902 and 916.
    Transaction Steps:
    1.Outbound delivery, TO created
    2.Inbound delivery created, GR done, while creating Putaway TO system is moving the stock from 902 storage type to 916 storage type
    But the pick TO created against the Outbound delivery is not cancelled and the Outbound delivery is not updated with the Putaway TO.
    Which step or config i am missing?
    Regards
    Venkat

    Hi, you have two options to configure cross-docking. Take a look at these documents for detailed explanation.
    1) Planned Cross-Docking
    Planned Cross-Docking - Cross-Docking (LE-WM-DCK) - SAP Library
    2) Opportunistic Cross-Docking
    Opportunistic Cross-Docking - Cross-Docking (LE-WM-DCK) - SAP Library
    I figure you are using opportunistic xDck based on your question.
    Could you just go through all the steps on the document I linked?
    Just go through all of the requirements, carefully inspecting if any
    of those doesn't match the process.
    First you have the settings required. Make sure they are OK.
    Then check the process flow and your documents you are testing
    with.

    We are trying to create a cross docking scenario in EWM. We are trying for the EWM triggered opportunistic cross docking. With all the suggested config settings and master data, the process is not happening. Can anybody share a config document regarding steps to be followed for Cross docking (in EWM).

    Because your scenario is working manually the above may not be a major issue.
    That's right. I've checked my settings, but this doen't seem to be the problem. As said, it works fine when creating WT's manually.
    kishore yerra wrote:
    the way we can try and diagnose this would be to deactivate your entries for storage type search sequence and try to retain only one entry that you used for cross docking.
    I've changed the storage type search sequence for putaway, so that the only available storage type is the Goods Issue zone. The system now creates a WT for putaway in 9020. However, it doesn't link the stock to the outbound delivery order, so it actually acts like a putaway. So, this is not the solution unfortunately.

    Along with this put a closs monitor on SLG1 to understand the determination used when warehouse tasks are created.

    it also displays one interesting warning message:
